don't forget the "lick cycle"

well on the brighter side of things there is this: http://news.yahoo.com/blogs/sideshow/next-great-depression-mit-researchers-predict-global-economic-190352944.html those mayan calendar thingies go in 20 year cycles? 2012-2030 yeah, it doesnt quite make the full 20 so reckon there was no need to add the next one. i am gonna party like it's 2029!!! http://limits-to-growth.org/

all these recent endorsements of mitty are less than enthusiastic. demint's possible possibly endorsement if romney possibly does possibly become the nominee and the the most recent weekly standard issue , mitty admits he doesnt want to reveal his plans after taking office, becoz he knows that politically it will put him on the defensive. 30 weeks or so before the general election, how many gaffes will this guy come up with? we cant even really call the gaffes at this point, can we? it just seems to reveal his view. currently 20% of republican voters admit they will either stay at home or even vote for obama. who knows what the magic etch-a-sketch will come up with next. and JB, your buddy rush has been relentless in his vicious attacks against gingrich. here in perhaps one of the most critical moments in recent political history, the republicans put forth this guy? cmon man. there may as well be a third party running a candidate becoz, either way. its gonna be obama in november. my 3-2 odds on that still stand, any takers? obama is gonna bloody miity's nose here is a clue , the silent majority was never the 1 % i thought we lived in a republic? not an aristocracy the entire process (primaries) was rigged from the start, a recent example is mitty's third place finish in north dakota where he still got the majority of the delegates. even thomas jefferson was in favor of a strong public education system i play three nines, and echo what santorum said "bullshit"

are you suggesting that " gravity in particular " is geometry?

sounds great. we all seem to be agreeing that on a smaller and local scale , the sense of community cooperation and shared objectives is very doable. and on the larger scale things may seem to be not so harmonious. to be part of a community as the one you describe, i would be happy to be the one to fix the damn pothole. (where is my shovel, cold patch , and tamper) i know i post alot on the ideal of anarchy. but really to live in the community that allows you to live the lifestyle you really want is very appealing, regardless of a govt or none. it is still the spirit of personal liberty, pursuit of happiness idea,( without constraints )

meow! edit>> if the world does end as we know it later this year, the wildcats will be the final reigning champions. how many trigrams are there? the same number as the wildcats have national championships.

http://books.google.com/books/about/Quantum_Geometry.html?id=T6fWst-KdoYC ai yeah geometry still trumps physics/quntuam physics, however interesting the discussion of quantum physics is. strange no one evr talks of quantum chemistry. they all work together and all but i say i say mathematics dont lie

i agree about the small scale community readiness but as a general popluation, the majority of the masses. no where close enuff on the evolved level to enter into a peaceful and prosperous state of anarchy. on an indvidual level , i know some of us are in our anarchy each and everyday.

at the age of ten and during the great deprssion scruggs forever changed how the banjo should be played. words cannot describe his impact on bluegrass. we could say he was the greatest and that is way understating his talent. http://www.bloomberg.com/news/2012-03-29/earl-scruggs-banjoist-who-invented-scruggs-style-dies-at-88.html tell louise we all say howdy

i just heard about the white dragon society yesterday on another thread in taoist discussion. are they the same of different?

" good relationship technique content, like how to expand and invigorate a relationship and make it work. how to give it a meaning of its own, a purpose where you and partner both have a plan, a long term goal and you want to see it through, and you discuss this goal early on so you both know what you are working towards, mutually, and this gives the relation a lot of magic quality, because now you have a plan to work to realizing it. " "each friend represents a world in us, a world possibly not born until they arrive." there will need to be a willingness to invest. personal investment of time, effort, thought,feeling. share activities. acceptance , the flaws and all. open honesty and trust. mutual support. relationships can become strained when the involved parties have different needs. altho differences themselves should not be a cause of problems. engage in a dual perspective. honesty is a gift given between friends. to care. grow from differences. dont sweat the small stuff. acceptance does not mean that you have to like every single thing about that other person, it does mean that you do not try to change them to suit your own needs.

" (prob sooner) many current scientific models will be over turned. That's how its supposed to be I guess." reckon so http://www.quantumgeometrydynamics.com/blog/

" I believe that the value of good health exceeds that of wealth," far exceeds imo/ime . my friend scott gave me a whacker/hitter that he made himself. it is made of wood.

" In gratefulness, there is a humility and a...release, I guess you could say...that is very uplifting and refreshing." _/\_ " My thoughts were about power and personal gratification" and now you are becoming aware of a truer power

here are a few of my teachers

anytime you walk is an opportunity. even normal walking such as for errands or such, one will want to have a proper weight distribution, balance, keeping spine and head erect , mind quiet, calm, and alert. a walking meditation compliments standing, sitting, and laying meditation. for a meditative walking , a garden or park area with good clean air and trees and plants to supply richer oxygen and a place of quietness would be good. look forward and place the tongue on the palate. walk erect with shoulders, elbows, knees relaxed and loose. arms hang naturally and not swing to little or too much. as in taijiquan, the fingers should not be stretched apart and should curve naturally. direct the bulk of your weight below the navel. the foot touching the ground bears the brunt of the weight. the other foot is weightless and light. when you place your foot evenly on the ground the pressure of the step will stimulate the glands, nerves, arteries, and veins. as you walk coordinate the mind, qi, breath , and walking movement. anyone could come join me in some immortal walking in the forest. i will not describe it here.

http://www.thetaobums.com/index.php?/topic/17962-internal-martial-arts-classics/ one of many threads on this forum that ended way too soon imo other threads such as those about taoist alchemy within taiji ,,as soon as the conversation gets to the point of getting to an interesting level,everyone quits posting. i have no idea why.

Sifu Rel, welcome to the tao bums. do you practice xingyiquan? if you have the "one qi" it will lead you to how to use it. jou ton had a smooth one qi. if you read yue fei's ten theses and have an understanding on those, then you may consider yourself a higher level. look to jiang rong qiao and sun lu tang.
